22 men walked into the Pathfinder Retreat. What they left with wasn’t what they expected.

What happens when a room full of high-performing men— entrepreneurs, executives, husbands, and dads— drop their titles, leave the chaos behind, and finally get real?

In this “Success for the Athletic-Minded Man” episode, I take you behind the scenes at the very successful 2025 Pathfinder Retreat, so you can also benefit from what we learned at the comfort of your own home.

We came together last May to sharpen our edge professionally. But what happened had little to do with tactics and everything to do with vulnerability, honest reflection, and resetting what really matters.

I’m breaking down the 13 unexpected lessons that emerged from that weekend. From why “low-hanging fruit tastes just as good” to what one guy called “Good Dude Ville”— and why that oddly perfect phrase might just unlock your next breakthrough.

If you’ve ever felt stuck in your head, pulled in too many directions, or like you're succeeding on the outside but drifting on the inside, this one’s for you.

And at the very end of the episode, I’ll share the story and the exact strategy I used when I was sitting in the stands in tears after losing at the NCAA Championships... the same strategy I shared with the men at the retreat to help them stay on fire long after the retreat ended. Let’s dive in!
